Entry tags:author entitlement, baleetion, books that should be burned, can't escape the screencaps, conspiracy theories, crazy people, do your research, doesn't mean what you think it means, enormous clusterfuck, entitlement, fandom failures, fandom: twilight, fanfic, gratuitous freud reference, hypocrisy, i don't know my rights, i know it because of my learnings, i wanted to be wanked, illegality, internet lawyers, internet psychologist, interrogating from the wrong perspective, irony, lawyerism, my education let me show you it, my pretension let me show you it, not good with criticism, not very subtle at all, not you again, oh christ here we go again, omgwtf, oppression, persecution, reading comprehension whut?, self-publishing, she's on a mission guys!, someone is wrong on the internet!, this is the wank that never ends, this was no chicken, too many fucking tags, wankers who will not shut up, we love jf tags, what the shit is this?, whut, wikipedia, writers are often pompous douches, wtf mate, yay screencaps!

The Russet Doom Saga, Part III
Lady Sybilla put out another press release. She also showed up at the Twilight Lexicon again, since that went so well the last time. (When the formatting gets hard to read, check it here.)

(Fanhistory links are all nofollow.)

After her Wikipedia article was deleted (you can go to the Russet-Noon webpage for more information), Lady Sybilla edited the shit out of the Russet Noon Fanhistory page all by her lonesome (despire Laura Hale asking around on Bebo whether anyone else had anything to contribute).

And in case your blog entry about the whole affair shows up there, I'm sorry. Lady Sybilla farmed the Russet Doom Supplementary Links Collection and changed my format a little to make the attention seem less wholly negative.

Oh also I put together an
entry in my journal with links to screencaps and transcriptions and things, for quick and easy reference.

For as long as our minds are enslaved by the belief that the archetypal world can be commercialized, we are the victims of a lie, a smokescreen, an ideology, a matrix. We must free our minds from this lie.

When, oh when will humanity throw off the reeking fetters of intellectual property law and finally be able to make scads of cash express themselves? FREEDOM.

Characters don’t belong to authors. Authors don’t create characters. They merely channel them. Characters are recurring universal archetypes. The only thing that changes is their names and identities, but their essence is always the same.

I'm channeling something right now. I think it's a bit of undigested beef, because there's nothing but gravy about this woman's soapboxing.

I refuse to believe this dumb cunt actually means any of this. And seriously, if she says one more time that she's the specialest ZOMG only EJJUCAYTED fanfic writer on the internet I will cut someone. I know dozens of college-educated writers. Oddly enough, none of them issue press releases to make sure everyone knows.

No need to restate your views for the umpteenth time, as they’ve already been established quite clearly. But, since we seem to be rehashing personal interpretations ’til the cows home, I’d like to mention once again that I stand my ground in regards to my mature adult perspective, so if my PRs upset you so much, then don’t read them.


It's been spelled out to her, but she still doesn't get it! PRs are designed to grab people's attention. So, of course they are going to read it! What an idiot!

The origin of all characters is the Shared Mind, the only mind that truly exists. Our minds are all one single ocean of shared memories, fantasies, dreams, nightmares and visions.

So she's given up on her own (very very skewed) logic, and moved on to using characters from The Host to justify herself. That's lovely.

So, I was sad when I thought this wank had died...

Now I wish it had.
Lady Syb's logic hurts. It's seriously painful to read her press release and try to comprehend it.

Man she's just given up on any kind of logic and is just going for full blown crazy now.

And maybe if she wanted people to move on she should move on first. But I guess that would be too much Earth Logic for her brain to handle.

You guys, did Lady Sybilla ever publicly apologize, or did she just do that in an email to me and I made it public? I don't think she'd have put out an apologetic press release, and I just ctrl+f'ed her Foforks interview for the words "sorry" and "apolog~" and neither came up.

I'm not in Twilight fandom. I haven't read the books. But this lady's gonna ruin fanfic for the rest of the fen, and if she keeps it up, for fandoms beyond Twilight.

Somewhere in there is a teensy, tiny kernel of a point that I almost vaguely agree with. But then she just went and got batshit crazy fail all over it and now I'm not even sure what it was anymore.

A+

Also, I'm wondering if she really thinks that this PRLog site is her LiveJournal. Seriously, use your freaking [info]russet_noon account for crying out loud.

Repeat with me: PRLog is not my LJ.

Also: repost because I fail at html today.

You know, I don't think she's trying hard enough to roast in the fires of fangirl hell.

She is Sybilla of Teh Internets. When her arguments failed her, she sewed their corpses together and left them in the middle of a desert of logic for the wank ravens.
